Chapter 56: The Eve of the Sudden Change (2)
At night, all the soldiers rested one after another, and a dark shadow merged with the night and scurried around the barracks.
Lu Yan already knew that Qi Guang and the others had rushed to Dongchuan, and he was also anxious at the moment, if he waited until tomorrow and Yan Qinghan and the others left, he was afraid that he would not be able to survive to the Wan Dynasty, just when he was struggling to think about how to escape, he heard the sound of the soldiers guarding the door as if they had fallen to the ground, and a black shadow flashed in front of the door.
The black shadow pushed the door in, this person was dressed in night clothes, masked, and walked towards Lu Yan, and this person was Qi Guang, who appeared here on Yan Qing's orders during the day.
"Who are you!?" Lu Yan looked a little overwhelmed, after all, he didn't know whether this person was friend or foe.
"Be quiet! I came to save you on the orders of the Queen Mother. Qi Guang deliberately lowered his voice and said in a deep voice.
In the house, except for the cold moon white light thrown in from the window, there was no light, Lu Yan couldn't see Qi Guang's face clearly, and questioned: "Auntie? You were sent by your aunt? ”
"The Queen Mother has not waited for your reply in the Wan Dynasty, and she can't rest assured, so she sent a team of people to follow behind you, and sure enough, as Niangniang expected, something went wrong!"
"Are you really the Queen Mother? I haven't seen you before. Lu Yan was obviously still skeptical.
"If I really have a familiar face, do you think I can go into this barracks again to save you?"
Hearing Qi Guang say this, Lu Yan thought for a moment, and most of the doubts in his heart disappeared, he was not by his aunt's side all the year round, and it was not unusual for him to have seen the attendants and secret guards under his aunt.
Qi Guang walked to Lu Yan's side, and while untying the iron chain for him, he admonished: "Today is heavily guarded, I can't take you out of here, I just came to tell you that when you return to the Wan Dynasty tomorrow, take the opportunity to coerce Yan Qinghan, and when you get to a safe place outside Dongchuan City, we will pick you up there, if you can't do it, the Queen Mother said that you don't have to leave your life." ”
Listening to Qi Guang's words, Lu Yan knew that if he couldn't kill Yan Qinghan, he would definitely die, his aunt was worthy of being an aunt, and his own flesh and blood could be used, so he really deserved the title of the most poisonous woman's heart.
At this time, Qi Guang had already untied the chains locked on his feet, and Qi Guang noticed that there were still unhealed sword wounds on his legs and shoulders, which showed that his master had treated his injuries for him in order to make the plan go well, but unfortunately his life could only be until tomorrow.
"I've said everything I need to say, this dagger can help you when the time comes, go out of the city like the suburbs, be sure to avoid everyone, otherwise don't blame me for not reminding you then." Qi Guang said and took out a short dagger from his arms and handed it to Lu Yan.
Lu Yan took it and put the dagger into his arms, "I haven't asked yet, what is your status in the Wan Dynasty?" Judging from the tone of his voice, Lu Yan felt that he seemed to be very unconsiderate, and it seemed that he should be a person who was very valued by his aunt's side.
"It's just an ordinary captain, how could General Lu have heard of it." Qi Guang sneered.
"General? Haha, I'm afraid that now the tiger will fall into Pingyang and be bullied by dogs! Lu Yan was not ashamed, Qi Guang couldn't help but sneer when he heard him say this, he is a tiger, he is a bear, he even dares to say that we are dogs, if it weren't for the wrong time, he really wanted to teach this Lu Yan a lesson now.
"Then the general will ask for more blessings, I will take the first step, and I will see you in the forest on the outskirts of Dongchuan City tomorrow." Qi Guang got up, turned around and walked outside.
Qi Guang took out the dagger again, and pulled out the dagger through the moonlight, and the dagger was still shining with cold light, "Yan Qinghan, tomorrow is your death!" Qi Guang looked fierce and said with a cruel smile.
......
Mu Sheng was drunk in the inn yesterday, and when she woke up today, it was already past noon, she only felt a splitting headache, and sat up with her forehead, I have to say that their Dongchuan wine is really strong.
She walked out of the guest room, ready to go downstairs to eat something, last night only cared about drinking to relieve her sorrows, she didn't eat anything, and now her stomach is empty, and she can't stop screaming.
"Little Er'er!" Mu Sheng found a vacant seat and sat down, and recruited Xiao Er.
"What would you like to eat?" Xiao Er ran to her and asked enthusiastically.
"A plate of spring rolls, a bowl of bean porridge." Come to think of it, I haven't tasted Dongchuan's delicious food for a long time, and now that I think about it, I miss it very much.
"Well, you can wait a minute, and I'll be here in a moment." Then, Xiao Er beckoned to go down.
While Mu Sheng was waiting for food, some diners came in one after another and sat not far from her.
As soon as they sat down, several people began to discuss.
"Today, I see a team of soldiers and horses entering our Dongchuan City, and it looks like the soldiers and horses of the Ten Thousand Dynasty."
"What's so strange about this, don't you know, I heard that the Emperor of the Wan Dynasty personally brought soldiers and horses to our Dongchuan to support, otherwise our Dongchuan would be able to force the Turks to retreat so quickly."
"It's really strange, the second princess is gone, isn't our king already breaking with the Wan Dynasty? Why is Wan Chao still coming to help us now? ”
"What's so strange about this, our second princess is the queen of the Wan Dynasty, and if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, it shows that the emperor of the Wan Dynasty has a deep affection for our second princess."
These words were heard clearly by Mu Sheng, Mu Sheng tilted his head slightly and looked at a few people, seeing that they were dressed up quite noble and rich, he immediately understood why he knew the inside story of so many dynasties, listening to what they said, when the Wan Dynasty and Dongchuan broke up, it was not Yan Qinghan's doing, but after all, everyone is also cloudy, how can he fully believe these rumors that have been circulated.
Just thinking about it, Xiao Er had already brought the food, Mu Sheng picked up the chopsticks, picked up a spring roll and put it in his mouth, sure enough, it was still the same taste as before, and he suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.
I thought I could have a peaceful meal, but after a while, the people at the table started talking again.
"You said that our king is too, these two princesses are married princesses after all, how can they run to the Wan Dynasty to ask people back because they are gone, this is not ridiculous." dog
"Didn't you say that the second princess was brought back by the emperor of the Wan Dynasty to our king? How do you know? ”
"It's all over the palace, I have a good ......" Before the person finished speaking, Mu Sheng couldn't listen anymore, she got up and walked in front of a few people and stopped.
"Are you telling the truth?" Mu Sheng asked coldly.
Several people looked up at Mu Sheng, Mu Sheng's eyes shot cold light, and he was staring at a few people, and several people looked at each other and nodded.
"Do you know that if you talk about the royal family at will, you should be punished for your crimes." Mu Sheng said again, and when several people heard it, they were frightened, and they shook their heads and waved their hands again and again.
"We don't dare to talk nonsense, this... These things have already spread, but they are all gossip after tea and dinner, if the girl doesn't believe it, you can ignore it, but don't expose us! ”
Mu Sheng turned around and went upstairs, and the remaining few people sat stupidly in place, until Mu Sheng's figure disappeared from their sight, and then they opened their mouths again.
"Who is this woman, who can see people's straight hair!"
"I don't know, it doesn't look like it's from my Dongchuan, otherwise I don't know these things."
"No, I look at people a little familiar, but like, like ......" The man didn't say anything for a long time, and the people next to him were anxious by him.
"What is it, you can say it!"
"Oh! Like the second princess, like the second princess! The man suddenly realized and said in a loud voice.
However, a few people around him felt that he was talking nonsense, after all, the two princesses were not yet at the age of the weak crown when they left, and even if they were still alive, they were already past the weak crown, not to mention, their second princess had already died in a foreign land, and now even the body was buried in the tomb of the king of Chengwai.
"Let's eat, let's eat, I think he's stupid!"
"Hey, what I said is true, I met the second princess once, and the appearance of that woman and the second princess is very similar, why don't you believe it!?" The man was still arguing.
But the rest of the people have stopped paying attention to him, and he is not unrelenting, but they don't know that because of their tea chatter, Mu Sheng's already troubled heart is even more chaotic at this moment.
If what those people said just now was true, should I still hate him so much......
Mu Sheng lay on the bed and fell into deep thought, if those were not Yan Qinghan's doing, then she just hated him for killing their children with his own hands and ruining her last hope, he did not abandon Dongchuan after his death, nor did he insult her so far, from beginning to end, Dongchuan left him, thinking like this, it seems that Mu Sheng also understood why he was full of guilt for himself, and would help Dongchuan at the risk of his life.
But what Mu Sheng couldn't figure out was that if Yan Qinghan wasn't such a cold-blooded and ruthless person, why would he bear to kill their unborn children, and what he said about his compulsion, was there anything to do with it.
Calm down, Mu Sheng thought about this, only to feel more tired, if everything is not what she thinks, then should she continue to take revenge with Xiaoyi, Xiaoyi has never known anything, hasn't she.
After thinking about it left and right, Mu Sheng decided that she would ask him in person, and there were some things that she couldn't choose to escape after all.
Mu Sheng took the running water and walked out of the house, when she came down, the people at the table had not left, and when she saw that Mu Sheng and the others were talking loudly, they immediately stopped talking, but Mu Sheng didn't even look at them, and went straight out of the inn.
"See, people are holding swords in their hands, our second princess is a princess, where is there such a murderous spirit, you are still talking nonsense here."
"But it looks like ......," the man still muttered.
"Then when did you meet the second princess?" Seeing that others did not give up, the other asked.
"When the second princess is not married."
When a few people heard it, they all had their hearts beating him, "The second princess is twenty-eight years old and close, this woman looks like she is twenty, you have only seen once, so many years have passed, you are really good eyesight, you can see at a glance that she is similar to the second princess!" ”
......
Mu Sheng came to the vicinity of the barracks, only to realize that he forgot to wear a hat and forgot to change his appearance, so he came so suddenly, if he was bumped into, it would be troublesome.
She hid in a hidden place and watched that there were a lot more soldiers in the barracks, it seems that the group of guys in the inn was right, Qi Guang's soldiers and horses had indeed come here, and it seemed unlikely that Mu Sheng would see Yan Qinghan in this blue sky and daylight, so he could only return and stay until the evening.
Late at night, Mu Sheng came to the barracks, except for the soldiers in the camp who were patrolling, she wanted to go straight to Yan Qinghan's room, but she found a dark shadow, the person was masked, and went straight to the direction where Lu Yan was being held.
Mu Sheng was puzzled, then turned around and followed the man all the way to the place where Lu Yan was being held.
Seeing that the man knocked out the guard's guard, he slipped in.
Mu Sheng immediately followed, jumped on the roof, as always, lifted the tiles, the scene in the house was unobstructed, she vaguely heard the two seem to be talking about something, vaguely related to Yan Qinghan, and also heard the suburbs of Dongchuan City, but the two of them were not loud, they were afraid of exposure, and they couldn't listen carefully, until they saw a flash of silver light, Mu Sheng saw clearly, the man in black gave Lu Yan a dagger.
Mu Sheng saw that the man in black was about to leave, and then got off the roof, flashed into the dark, had a secret meeting late at night, and could sneak into the barracks, it seems that this person is not simple, but Mu Sheng doesn't know who it is, she wanted to find Yan Qinghan, but the soldiers on patrol seemed to have noticed a change, so she could only leave first.
Back at the inn, Mu Sheng was probably only one or two, Yan Qinghan still had a dagger, it seems that they must have some plan tomorrow, the suburbs of Dongchuan City, after thinking about it, Mu Sheng decided to go to the outskirts of Dongchuan City tomorrow morning to find out.
